Cooling towers - workplace health and safety

Where non-domestic premises have evaporative cooling towers there is a legal requirement for these devices to be registered with Guildford Borough Council. In addition, any changes to or the removal of these devices must also be notified.

The purpose of this registration is to enable us to monitor the preventative measures for Legionella bacteria becoming established. Legionella pneumophila bacteria are known to produce flu-like symptoms which can be fatal in some circumstances.
